Eddie let out a whistle. You really got rid of that old bag. Please don't call her that. But that's what she is, said Eddie. She complained to me about the Parmesan the other day. She more or less accused me of substituting grana. She's a real pain. Big-time.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
